Influence of zinc bacitracin and Bacillus licheniformis on microbial intestinal functions in weaned piglets.
Vet Res Commun
October 2003
Laboratory of Medical Microbial Ecology, Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institutet, von Eulers väg 5, S-17177 Stockholm, Sweden.
The influence of zinc bacitracin (ZB) and of Bacillus licheniformis on host microbial-related functions in young piglets was investigated by applying the concept of microflora-associated characteristics. Six biochemical parameters were determined before and after weaning in faecal samples from piglets in four litters having access to a diet containing ZB, to a diet containing B. licheniformis, to a diet with both additives, or to a diet with no additives, from 3 weeks of age.

This study investigated the influence of zinc bacitracin on the intestinal flora of horses. The functionally active intestinal flora was examined in 6 horses during treatment with zinc bacitracin. Utilising gas chromatography, spectrophotometry, gel electrophoresis and paper chromatography, samples were analysed on biochemical markers reflecting the action of parts of the intestinal flora.

Dept. of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Patients with antibiotic-associated diarrhoea (AAD) show significant disturbances in short-chain fatty acid pattern. In the present study five more microflora-associated characteristics (MACs) were investigated before and after administration of an enema containing faecal microflora from a healthy person on a Western diet.
Methods: The functions of the microflora were determined with gas chromatography, electrophoresis, and spectrophotometry.

Laboratory of Medical Microbial Ecology, Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.
Intestinal functions related to the presence of microbes in host organisms are normally heavily influenced by administration of antimicrobial drugs. We have investigated the effect of several antibiotics in man and rat, on some MACs (Microflora Associated Characteristics). A MAC is defined as the recording of any anatomical structure, biochemical or physiological function in the host organism which is influenced by microflora.

August 1989
Institut für Medizinische Mikrobiologie, Hannover, FRG.
The influence of selective oral antimicrobial prophylaxis (SOAP) and systemic antibiotic treatment (SAT) on the intestinal flora of fourteen granulocytopenic patients was investigated. For SOAP, patients received Cotrimoxazole, Polymyxin and Nystatin; Gentamicin, Ticarcillin and Cefuroxime were administered for SAT. Under SOAP, a complete elimination of Enterobacteriaceae and a marked reduction of yeasts and staphylococci was found.
